Move on. Making sure they don't get recognition as a 'YC company' or preventing them from presenting on demo day...none of this helps you. Anymore time spent on this is time wasted. Make a clean break, take the lessons learned and go work on your next company.
- argumentum 14y agoI am trying to move on. I offered a clean break with terms suggested by YC the very first day of my termination, this was 40 days ago. I am building my own things, in fact will release a pretty nifty chrome extension for hacker news in the next couple days. It is the company that is refusing to make a clean break. The situation is quite complicated, as I currently live in a house leased by the company and I am the only one affiliated with the company that lives here. I also spent over $20k on company expenses early in the summer before the convertible note, this needs to be repaid. I did not take a salary, while everyone else in the company did. I could go on, but this isn't the place. I'm not trying to prevent them from presenting, as I have already accepted that they will likely present. I am trying to help my batchmates and other yc companies, who know only of me, understand how and why this happened.
